Blog Post #1

There is a lot that I am hoping to take out of the multi-engine class here at Westminster. I would like to learn how to be proficient in flying more sophisticated aircraft without always flying them. I think it is important to be competent in the systems and operations of any aircraft being flown including those which may or may not be flown often. A solid understanding of how the systems in the aircraft work together would be very helpful. Things such as cabin atmosphere would be very helpful to learn as it is more difficult and expensive to use an airplane which have these systems. All-in-all I hope to gain an understanding of why these aircraft have more advanced systems and how they help me as the pilot.
The blogging is very helpful. It gives students a chance to share ideas without having to match schedules and locations. I have done blogging in the past with CFI and it gave much more insight into topics which I would not have gained if it weren't for blogging.
